Disconnected Network Drive

I have a Win XP SP2 system connected to a single domain, it uses a simple batch file to map a handful of drives. When it first boots everything looks good, after a while you open the windows explorer and it shows drives from A to Z and the ones that were never mapped show as "Disconnected Network Drive (drive_letter:)".
I have 50 other systems configured the same way and they all work fine, I have no idea where this is coming from or how to fix it.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

does this computer has the same hardware as all the other computers?( i mean no extra cd/dvd) have you checked under control panel/administrative tools/computer management/dsk management to see if the drive letters are not already taken by a usb drive or another network path?

download a utility called tune up utilities 2006 from www.tune-up.com. after your install the program go the the systemcontrol choice and scroll down till you find the drives tab. you can use this utility to do a lot of customizing to your desktop. it will fix the problem. it sounds like you have a script running though when you log on.
